eSIM transfer

Heeeeee
Great Neighbour / Super Voisin

Hi,

I was using Public mobile with eSIM on one device and changed to a new device.

When I purchase a new eSIM on the new one, it charged me the eSIM fee.

I thought I was eligible for a free esim?

 

Is it possible to get a refund on this?

Thank you!

@Heeeeeeand @Meow 

there are some conditions to be eligible for a free eSIM replacemen

https://www.publicmobile.ca/en/get-help/articles/esim-faqs

While direct eSIM to eSIM transfers are not supported, we do offer the option to transfer service from one eSIM to another by purchasing a new eSIM. If you are already using a Public Mobile eSIM, when you request a new eSIM, we automatically identify you as an existing eSIM user and waive the replacement fee, provided you meet certain conditions.

To qualify for a fee waiver when transitioning between eSIMs, you must meet the following criteria:
     *  The current Public Mobile eSIM must be actively installed in the device you’re transferring from.
     *  The eSIM must have been purchased at least 15 days prior to the new request.

But if think you have a valid reason for reimbursement, check with PM CS agent

I believe you are eligible for a free esim as long as you are replacing current esim on current account.

Please provide more detail: you changed a phone or it is a new account?
